Hi All,

I have a question concerning the fill level of a manual tranny in a 1999 9-3.. I figured out where the fill plug is, but how do you determine when it is full?

Most manuals I have ever worked on you normally fill it to the level of the plug, this being on the top of the transmission, well it would seem that it is then overfilled..


Thanks for any help!

Thanks for the response sb.. One last question which I hope is an easy one, what fluid type is supposed to be used? Can you get it at an aftermarket parts store? or are we talking Saab dealer only?
